I died it My Way, Frank’s funeral No1

-

FRANK Sinatra’s My Way topped a funeral song chart, ahead of Time To Say Goodbye Over The Rainbow Eva Cassidy.

A study of 2,000 adults by Co-op Funeralcar­e showed increasing numbers of people having a playlist ready for their funeral.

Two out of five said they wanted to “raise a laugh” at their funeral, explaining why Monty Python’s Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life remains one of the most popular songs, with one in 10 saying they would consider The Jam’s Going Undergroun­d.

A list of the most popular funeral songs by pop artists included Robbie Williams, Westlife, Adele and Rihanna.

Liverpool FC’s You’ll Never Walk Alone is top of the sport category, having overtaken the Match Of The Day theme tune, and popular soap Coronation Street’s theme tune is top of the funeral TV charts.
